In this article we collect a series of observations that constrain actions of many groups on compact manifolds. In particular, we show that "generic" finitely generated groups have no smooth volume preserving actions on compact manifolds…
In this paper we prove that the dimension of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth quasi-projective curve is equal to one. We also discuss dimension spectrums of these categories.
A lot of good properties of etale cohomology only hold for torsion coefficients. We use "enlargement of categories" as developed in http://arxiv.org/abs/math.CT/0408177 to define a cohomology theory that inherits the important properties of…
We provide a general method to construct examples of quasi-Sasakian 3-structures on a (4n+3)-dimensional manifold. Moreover, among this class, we give the first explicit example of a compact 3-quasi-Sasakian manifold which is not the global…
In this paper we study the deformation and Q-Gorenstein deformation theory of schemes with non-isolated singularities. We obtain obstruction spaces for the existence of deformations and also for local deformations to exist globally. Finally…
We investigate the behavior of semi-orthogonal decompositions of bounded derived categories of singular varieties under flat deformations to smooth varieties. We consider a Q-Gorenstein smoothing of a surface with a quotient singularity,…
We prove that compact non-flat manifolds with constant sectional curvature admit no conformal product structure. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the methods extend naturally to irreducible, compact locally symmetric spaces of non-positive…
Let $(\mathcal C,\otimes,1)$ be an abelian symmetric monoidal category satisfying certain conditions and let $X$ be a scheme over $(\mathcal C,\otimes,1)$ in the sense of To\"en and Vaqui\'{e}. In this paper we show that when $X$ is…
We construct the first examples of regular del Pezzo surfaces for which the irregularity (i.e. the dimension of the first cohomology group of the structure sheaf) is nonzero. We also find a restriction on the integer pairs that are possible…
We prove that under a certain mild hypothesis, the DG category of D-modules on a quasi-compact algebraic stack is compactly generated. We also show that under the same hypothesis, the functor of global sections on the DG category of…
Bezrukavnikov (later together with Arinkin) recovered the work of Deligne defining perverse $t$-structures for the derived category of coherent sheaves on a projective variety. In this text we prove that these $t$-structures can be obtained…
We construct an equivalence between the derived category of sheaves on an elliptic threefold without a section and a derived category of twisted sheaves (modules over an Azumaya algebra) on any small resolution of its relative Jacobian.
Let $\mathbb{X}$ be a weighted noncommutative regular projective curve over a field $k$. The category $\operatorname{Qcoh}\mathbb{X}$ of quasicoherent sheaves is a hereditary, locally noetherian Grothendieck category. We classify all…
We show that the bigraded quasi-isomorphism type of the bigraded, bidifferential algebra of forms on a compact K\"ahler manifold generally contains more information than the de Rham cohomology algebra with its real Hodge structure. More…
We study two notions of purity in categories of sheaves: the categorical and the geometric. It is shown that pure injective envelopes exist in both cases under very general assumptions on the scheme. Finally we introduce the class of…
We prove that the infinitesimal variations of Hodge structure arising in a number of geometric situations are non-generic. In particular, we consider the case of generic hypersurfaces in complete smooth projective toric varieties, generic…
We extend previous results on boundedness of sets of coherent sheaves on a compact K\"ahler manifold to the relative and not necessarily smooth case. This enlarged context allows us to prove properness properties of the relative Douady…
We give examples of derived schemes $X$ and a line bundle $\Ls$ on the truncation $tX$ so that $\Ls$ does not extend to the original derived scheme $X$. In other words the pullback map $\Pic(X) \to \Pic(tX)$ is not surjective. Our examples…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
We construct highly singular projective curves and surfaces defined by invariants of primitive complex reflection groups.
